What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

My wife and I needed to take the next step and plan for the future, as well as protect our assets via Life Insurance, which is a very difficult topic to comprehend and discuss, Penguin and in particular Gavin was absolutely fantastic.

How has Gavin Baos helped you?

Penguin and Gavin, firstly started by listening, which is a very important a skill, which is very often under utilised. Gavin listened to all our Questions, Queries and Concerns, then went through each one, point by point, to explain and give reason to what was being done, why and the outcome. Gavin also gave some advice on what to do, and wasn't just chasing 'money' - my wife and I were also querying setting up a will, but Gavin stated, as it is just us two, and our estate is under £250,000 in value, there wasn't a need to yet, when the time comes we will be using Penguin and Gavin for definitely.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Not only have we seen the outcome we were hoping for, but we have seen better results than we would imagine. Always there at the end of the phone and the experience Gavin brings is second to none. Even about issues that do not directly influence the services Penguin provide, Gavin is always available for an impartial view.

What could they have done better?

Penguin and Gavin, really couldn't have done anything more. Completely painless and effective, nothing was too much, a real credit to the Industry.

How has Gavin Baos helped you?

Gavin is a very friendly and approachable advisor, who is very swift to respond to any enquiries and who I feel is always available. His advice has been sound so far, taking me from having several funds that werent working for me and I knew little about to a place where I feel in charge of my savings and comfortable that they are now suitable to my needs.
